". . . I felt led to attempt to get the word out on what science was demonstrating about God's design. So I petitioned and received approval to teach a continuing education course at ourr local junior college, San Jacinto College, a course entitled, 'Cosmology—the Origin and Development of the Universe.' This was an 18-hour course, and your two books [The Fingerprint of God and The Creator and the Cosmos] served as the texts. I have now taught the course twice and am very enthused. Last week I even provided a wealth of information for my pastor to use in a sermon on the evidence for God's power in the design of the universe

"I just want to thank you for the inspiration to start this effort and for developing materials that can be used for instruction. Maybe my activities will inspire others of your readers to pursue similar efforts in their communities so that the work of the Reasons To Believe ministry can be spread far beyond what your staff and local volunteers can individually accomplish."

James, Houston, Tex.

"I would like to thank you with all my heart. For twenty-four years I have lived a life without God and without any religious beliefs. . . . My curriculum demanded above average knowledge in physics, other sciences, and mathematics. I strongly concluded that science and the written Word, the Bible, would never come together, and I have observed more than one individual who rejected science for his or her sacred beliefs, or, as it was in my situation, became a defender and supporter of atheism.

"One day by switching through the TV channels, I caught myself listening to your teachings, Reasons To Believe, on TBN. You cannot imagine how delighted I was to see and hear a sincere scientist, one who does not denounce scientific facts. By destiny I also found your book Creation and Time in our public library. . . .

"You have accomplished something I thought would never be possible. You showed me the way back to God and to Jesus Christ. You proved to me that I do not have to substitute scientific facts for religious faith to be or become a firm believer in the Almighty God and the Lord Jesus Christ."

Guenther, Charleston, S. C.

". . . My humanities teacher came across as a very proud atheist who said that Christianity is for people who have no knowledge of science because, if they did, their belief would falter. After expressing my belief in Jesus Christ, he expressed to the class that he, too, would like to believe in something. But what? I knew your material would be the best defense for the Bible as it harmonizes with science and asked my teacher if he would watch New Reasons to Believe [video] and give me his opinion of it, and he said he was glad to. After a month I went to his office and asked what he thought of the tape. I was expecting some kind of debate, but instead all my teacher could do was smile and say, 'Wow! This type of info demands attention.' I left my teacher an RTB catalog and pray that he seeks more of this newfound knowledge of God and of His awesomeness and spreads this powerful message to his students. Your tapes have given me new courage in sharing the Christian faith with nonbelievers."

Jeff, Los Angeles, Calif.

"My son, a freshman in high school, chose the Ark and the Flood for a school science project. We have been receiving Dr. Ross's communications and contacted your office for information on both. Janet was kind enough to recommend two tapes on the subject and to ship them to us with great speed. My son and I were both blessed by them, I think myself even more than my son. So many things I have hid in my heart for so many years were confirmed. I subsequently called your hotline with questions. I don't even know who I spoke to, but if there were more people like him teaching in the Body of Christ. . . . Well, thank God for his obedience where he is.

". . . I wanted you to know that the information we received, while interesting and supportive of Scripture, went far beyond three dimensions. It gave insight, revelation into the nature of God, and enabled my son and me to better understand His relationship with man in general and with each one of us individually. . . ."

Betty, Manahawkin, N. J.

"I am currently locked up in prison for the wrong doings of my old self. I am now a new creature in Christ and absolutely know my purpose for living, that is to spread the good news and bring lost souls back to Christ! I tuned in to the Reasons To Believe program for the first time today, and I firmly believe you can help me do my job. . . ."

Albert, Winslow, Ariz.

"Thank you for your appearance with Dr. Robert Schuller. . . . Please send me a copy of your news magazine, and then I will know more. I was raised with the Bible, and now that I am 80 years old, you give me a whole new view!"

Shakti, Amsterdam, Holland

". . . I am a fifteen year old who is amazed at how science proves the existence of our God.

"Recently, some of my peers at school asked me to prove that God exists, and I (sadly) was not equipped to give an answer. Last week I was watching your TV program on TBN, and I was astonished at the awesome proof of the Creator that you presented.

"With that in mind, I'm writing to ask you to help me out. Please send me A.S.A.P. two copies of any info that proves the existence of the God of the Bible. . . ."

Vonnie, Omaha, Neb.
